[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I feel the same damn way lately, OP. We moved from an apartment to a 4 bedroom house a few years ago and I am absolutely drowning. I can't find anything, can't keep things clean and organized, hate having a yard to care for, hate having a basement full of I-don't-even-know-what, harassing people to take X upstairs, etc., etc. Can't wait to sell this place next year and get back into something smaller! After 20+ years living in small spaces I learned to pick up as I went -- like schoolwork, you just have to keep up or you'll fail. In this house, it has felt impossible...I think because there are so many places to put things and spread out in general. Getting organized and becoming more efficient at home is my unofficial New Year's Resolution... Making lists, sent back all the Amazon/Zappos/Nordstrom returns, cleaned out refrigerator, bought supplies to re-line kitchen cabinets, paint to cover kid-induced missing wall chunks, etc. I'm trying to treat it like an actual job. (I used to be a senior project manager - hah!)[/quote] Great tips do far thank you! And glad I'm not the only one feeling like this. As to the post above, I have begun literally closing off rooms (guest room etc) that are already organized so stuff doesn't spread there. [/quote]
